20 years and it all went by in a flash ⚡The American Idiot 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition is out now 💣💥 Go give it a listen or grab a copy greenday.lnk.to/americanidiot20thdeluxe
Oh ya definitely but I meant like more modern day. Like these days you don't see a lot of Freddie mercurys or David Bowie's, James browns and other great live musicians.
Green Day was the first band I ever got into. Still my favorite band ever. All the other bands I listen to are either broken up, most of the (original) members are dead or both but either way aren't music anymore. Green Day has been kicking around for a long time and hopefully wont be going anywhere any time soon~
S J Belew Dutchem Dookie, Insomniac, Nimrod, Warning, and American Idiot were all masterpieces. 21st Century Breakdown and the Trilogy had a few good songs too, but weren't as good as the older albums.
ive played alot of green day songs on the drums and it is not easy. the fact he can do songs faster than how it was recorded in the studio for over 2 hours is unreal
Did you know that at all green day concerts there’s a sign that says we do not take responsibility for any personal damage as a result of one of très magical flying drumsticks 🥁
My first ever concert was Green Day in 2005 on The American Idiot tour when I was 13. It was an unforgettable and breathtaking experience. I'm now 32, and I'm going to see them again almost 20 years later. I've been to tons of concerts, but watching videos from this tour brings me back to some of the best days of my life. Legendary. Thank you, Green Day. Can't wait to see you again. ❤
I'm so lucky that I got to sing Longview on stage with the best band in the whole world and Billie Joe even gave me one of his guitars! So thankful! Rock on ~ Davison
This is one of the many things I love about Green Day, you can almost see the atmosphere at their concerts plus they don't sound any different from their studio recordings when performing live, which proves how brilliant they are :')
They don't sound different in the way that they are just as good, but not in the way that they're lip synching. They sound different enough to tell that they're doing it live, which I like.
Lyrics : *Sit around and watch the tube, but nothing's on I change the channels for an hour or two Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit I'm sick of all the same old shit In a house with unlocked doors And I'm fucking lazy Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise I'm so damn bored I'm going blind And I smell like shit Peel me off this Velcro seat and get me moving I sure as hell can't do it by myself I'm feeling like a dog in heat Barred indoors from the summer street I locked the door to my own cell And I lost the key Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise I'm so damn bored I'm going blind And I smell like shit I got no motivation Where is my motivation? No time for the motivation Smoking my inspiration Sit around and watch the phone, but no one's calling Call me pathetic, call me what you will My mother says to get a job But she don't like the one she's got When masturbation's lost its fun You're fucking lonely Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise I'm so damn bored I'm going blind And loneliness has to suffice Bite my lip and close my eyes I was slipping away to paradise Some say, "Quit or I'll go blind." But it's just a myth*
Jason White was for a bit in I think 2012-ish but when he was diagnosed with throat cancer again I think he went back to just being a touring guitarist
@@nuke2625 Personally I think Flea and Mike are on the same level with Mike being better at using simple riffs like this one to hold the band together while fleas basslines are very exaggerated and complicated
I Love Them, It's Like A Dream Come True. It's Like Me Trying To Play Music. 💚 They Deserve Their Music Career. 💪 They're Also Funny, They're So Sweet And They Love Everyone. They Care About Their Fans. 💚
7 years old, listening to green day. Playing their songs on guitar hero. Hanging with friends and nothing in the world could get you upset. 17 this year. Now I play their songs on a real guitar, lots of friends have left me but still have some left. Anxeity is a daily struggle. Life is tough but this gives me some releif.
every green day concert should be like this, these guys RUUUUUUUULLLE keepin punk rock and rock n roll alive is some good shit. too bad pop, rap and diva teenagers have taken over apple playlists and radio waves, bring back the old music, DONT LET GOOD MUSIC DIE, copy and post this on every green day video u can find if u agree with me
Remember watching this on mtv when I was 12 or 13 years old when I was in highschool. Now that I am almost 30 I am invaded by nostalgia of those beautiful times.
Sit around and watch the phone, but no one's calling Call me pathetic, call me what you will........... When masturbation's lost its fun You're fucking lonely....... Take me away to paradise I'm so damn bored I'm going blind And loneliness has to suffice Bite my lip and close my eyes I was slipping away to paradise Some say, "Quit or I'll go blind." But it's just a myth Those lines, man does it suck to know my life is exactly that. Then there is this song to comfort me.
I got no motivation Where is my motivation? No time for the motivation Smoking my inspiration! Sometimes i feel that this guy is in my head and write my own thoughts....because of that I LOVE YOU and your songs!
First time I listened to this song I was like," Tweet all my friends for a bit, Twitter must be old." But then I was like twiddle my thumbs for a bit O

I love you Mike Dirnt
He may be one of the few people that sound even better live
Linkin Park too
Oh ya definitely but I meant like more modern day. Like these days you don't see a lot of Freddie mercurys or David Bowie's, James browns and other great live musicians.
Michael Jackson is my favourite, he's really good live and a great entertainer. Prince too. The Beatles aswell.
Micro Peeniss Yeah him too, I woulda said him but PunkyGrace already mentioned him.
Eminem
That bass riff is just sexy. Simple as that.
i completely agree
agreed
+Naoki Kumori One of the best ive heard
NOT

The bass is so awesome
I agree
It's fairly easy to learn, too!
Yep
It really is. I love jamming to the bassline to this song and doing different things with it when I play.

I know that feel, I used to listen to this and blink 182 but blink broke up
hans jobe they didn't broke up :S
hans jobe They went on a 4 year hiatus, but they're still active. Their stuff isn't as good though now..
same
They broke up Green Day why 2018
I love Mike. Best bassist ever
He's a huge inspiration to me as a bassist.
Nimrod's my favorite Green Day album.
S J Belew mine are American Idiot and Dookie
S J Belew Dutchem Dookie, Insomniac, Nimrod, Warning, and American Idiot were all masterpieces. 21st Century Breakdown and the Trilogy had a few good songs too, but weren't as good as the older albums.
John Entwistle >
“You can’t create a song where the bass has more presence than the guitar and think people will like it”
Mike: Observe...
Who said that?
Who said that?
Who said that?
Who said that?
the one song where a bass player got the attention they deserved
Along with "Hitchin a Ride", 'Holiday", "She", "Welcome to Paradise", "Stuart and the Ave.", and "Sassafras Roots".
Don't forget paper lanterns, God, I cant get over the fact of Billie getting hit in the nuts by a shoe.
Most chilli pepper songs...
+Enzoned Gaming
eh?
Muse - Hysteria ?
Jesus it's been 10 years and Billie looks the same even here he looks like he's in the 90s he drank the hell out of that fountain of youth
Obviously, there's a drought in the fountain of youth.
Convine #hitchinaride
Obviously, he had plastic surgery and drugs.
@@christiansendi3217 wouldn't drugs make him look older?
This was in 2005
It doesn’t matter if the bass riff is complicated or not. It sounds amazing and that’s all that matters. Mike Dirnt is a fucking legend
? nobody said it mattered
I don't feel as if Tre is recognised enough, watch him at the end of longview, he is actually insane
There's a compilation of him in Letterman
At the end of this he says no man can eat 50 eggs
ive played alot of green day songs on the drums and it is not easy. the fact he can do songs faster than how it was recorded in the studio for over 2 hours is unreal
I really wish the camera would stay on him. I want to watch is technique.
They sound just about exactly how they do in the studio version. That's one of the things I love about Green Day
I love how at the end the lot of them just played the crap out of their instruments, you could see how much fun Tre was having.
Did you know that at all green day concerts there’s a sign that says we do not take responsibility for any personal damage as a result of one of très magical flying drumsticks 🥁
@@jackyboi8832 I'm going to look for that piece of shit, the next time I go to a Green Day concert
How simple is that bass riff and how iconic! Mike is a fucking genius.
its soo goog ive listen plenty times
he came up with the baseline while on LSD lmaoo
My first ever concert was Green Day in 2005 on The American Idiot tour when I was 13. It was an unforgettable and breathtaking experience.

I love this bass
I fucking swear....Out ALL the big finishes green day has ever done after a song....This one for Longview is the absolute fucking best IMO.
The one for good riddance also in Bullet in a Bible for me is definitly the best
gabriel santanna I agree :) *A;ways* gives me goosebumps.
0:20 That pop and harmonic was beautiful
5:50 is the best part don't fight me on this
I argree
But 5:38 shows Billie in his cinnamon roll glory. He looks like a sleepy little boy in that chair and it's adorable
Lyrics :
*Sit around and watch the tube, but nothing's on
I change the channels for an hour or two
Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit
I'm sick of all the same old shit
In a house with unlocked doors
And I'm fucking lazy
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind
And I smell like shit
Peel me off this Velcro seat and get me moving
I sure as hell can't do it by myself
I'm feeling like a dog in heat
Barred indoors from the summer street
I locked the door to my own cell
And I lost the key
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored I'm going blind
And I smell like shit
I got no motivation
Where is my motivation?
No time for the motivation
Smoking my inspiration
Sit around and watch the phone, but no one's calling
Call me pathetic, call me what you will
My mother says to get a job
But she don't like the one she's got
When masturbation's lost its fun
You're fucking lonely
Bite my lip and close my eyes
Take me away to paradise
I'm so damn bored
I'm going blind
And loneliness has to suffice
Bite my lip and close my eyes
I was slipping away to paradise
Some say, "Quit or I'll go blind."
But it's just a myth*
Thanks for naming this song after my home town, the lyrics are suiting
"No man can eat fifty eggs."
"Tre cool plays drums for green day, and snorts doughnut sprinkles. Oh man, that's a sweet drain."

Thumbs Up For The Guitar Player Who's Never Really Showed As a Band Member
ROCK ON JASON!!!
Jason White was for a bit in I think 2012-ish but when he was diagnosed with throat cancer again I think he went back to just being a touring guitarist
Mike Dirnt is so underrated. I mean can anyone here even play the bass while jumping up and down constantly?!?
It's hard af.props to the ude.
I can I’m in a punk band
@@jetlondon3225 congrats
Krist novoselic can and he plays the bass at his kneese
Krist novoselic he was like 6’6” tall and played with the bass in his knees whilst jumping
Mike Dirnt, the only member of the green day trio that looks normal.
Are you kidding me? Mike dirnt is after billie, It goes Billie, Mike, then Tre
ey b0ss
There is also Jason white
+Jimmy Neutron well someone has to look normal
Could we all just agree upon that they all look like the most badass caucasians ever?
Mike is one of the most alive bassists out there.
Along with Flea
@@lukagoddard1171 Yeah everyone talks about Mike as the best bassist ever but Ill rank Flea higher...
@@jimmyrodopski8265 yea i meant like more stage presence and personality.
@@nuke2625 Personally I think Flea and Mike are on the same level with Mike being better at using simple riffs like this one to hold the band together while fleas basslines are very exaggerated and complicated
6:05 I'm a straight guy and all, but yes Billie I liked that.
The bass is so awesome
Can't Believe Bullet In A Bible is gonna turn 18 this year. This is still my favorite Green Day Live album. I still have this on DVD.
Mike Dirnt, the only bass player in history that raised and screamed: I'm here!!!
#respect
I LOVE HOW MIKE HAD HIS TIME IN THE SPOTLIGHT
I Love Them, It's Like A Dream Come True. It's Like Me Trying To Play Music. 💚 They Deserve Their Music Career. 💪 They're Also Funny, They're So Sweet And They Love Everyone. They Care About Their Fans. 💚
True talent that Green Day can write a fun song about being bored.
I was at Longview Texas a couple days ago and got reminded of this song lol
0:16 Tre is looking Drip here his eyebrows are killing me
5:38 can we appreciate how adorable and innocent Billie looks? He looks like a little boy who passed out at a party
I love how Mike can hop around and dance with his bass guitar while still playing every single note
I was humming the bassline to this and my brother started singing along to it,
Damn lucky. All my siblings think I'm weird 😂
@@meganhannon2755 same lol
@@revnrave lmao
I hate when people talk crap about green day it pisses me off
crap about green day
can't you tell i'm being sarcastic ? green day's my favourite band, i was just trying to annoy the guy who i replied to
And?who cares,everyone has different tastes in music.
+Datonecharizard ur taste sucks then
+Shadow Venom Gamer i agree with every single letter of your comment
YA! UNCENSORED VERSION FOR THE WIN!
Caleb Likes Stuff but the crowd is singing the other swear words..
The best live band of all time. So precise, everything is clean and they keep getting better with age.
My parents got dookie when it came out
and all I can say is thank you over and over
I bit my lip and closed my eyes when I opened them I was not in paradise I just had a hurt lip

For once I actually like my cracked phone screen. I thought you said "erection" instead of "attention" and started laughing
Mike D. the bassman steals the show..
The basa chords are my fav.
Listening to this makes me happy :D
The album where Tré and Mike got the attention a drummer and bassist deserve.

The answer is yes

Those bass sounds before the bassline keep me alive 0:20
Remember watching this on mtv when I was 12 or 13 years old when I was in highschool. Now that I am almost 30 I am invaded by nostalgia of those beautiful times.
I'm so glad Iwas lucky enough to see them live! They're really good!
they are some of the best, green day is deffo truly awesome (the best)
Eduardo Armenta I agree!
Love Green Day! The few groups that will be for ever whit a good music!
Mike need some more love. The bass line here is just epic.
This is the reason i have a black Kramer Classic tuned down a half step, so i can learn to do green day's old and badass shytee. :)

They are great live.
Ah merci, ça fait plaisir un commentaire d'une personne un minimum ouverte d'esprit ! Je suis aussi fan de 30 Seconds To Mars ;)
Billie Joe is the best singer, and the best person, of all time. Green day is the pinnacle of human collaboration and is inhuman in quality
Ummm............ ok then
Love the bass!
Meu sonho era tá nesse show pqp! 😲💚💛💚💛
This song live and studio version makes me proud
the ending is the best part when the camera follows billie. and the crowds going nuts. too cool

Call me pathetic, call me what you will...........

Lol Tre is so creepy at concerts. He brings binoculars and crap. LOL gotta love Tre.
That bass and that crescendo make the song.
Only person who can make a whole audience sing about masturbation
And during Hitching a Ride he got the audience excited by rubbing himself down
